This article originally appeared in the Eco Living magazine and is about living sustainably. It is followed by a second article about the government departments that regulate and oversee public water and the bottled water industry. It explains the difference between the two and that the bottled water industry, which is regulated by the FDA, has little to no regulation. While in a stark contrast tap water, which is regulated by the EPA, is very highly regulated. This article was included because water from an ionizer is sourced from tap water and we want to show that tap water is actually more strictly regulated than bottled water, which should lead to better quality and safer water.
